Beautiful Feet with Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi

     There are times that I veered away from wearing heels and stilettos because I don't have the courage to show my feet especially my heels. My mother likes to collect sexy foot wear and she always insists to me that I need to have a break from wearing closed shoes once in a while. Aside from the fact that I have very sensitive feet, I have a boring shoe-life if that's the right term for someone who always wear sneakers, flats, and flip flops rather than heels or wedges if there's an important event in her life. I confessed that it's a pain to wear those killer stilettos and chunky heels, aside from the discomfort I'm also conscious of how my feet looks like. Is it dry and full of calluses? 

     Fast forward today, I'm so happy and truly amazed that revolutionary product that saves time, effort, and money was invented. This electronic foot file gives beautiful feet in one switch! Two months ago, I cringed on wearing wedges and heels because I'm afraid to show off my feet but now I'm super satisfied with the results. I can wear sexy foot wear and enjoy dressing up from day to night. Fear of formal attire no more! Gone are the days that I'd skip attending events because I'm shy to show off my feet. Now, nothings holding me back. I can bare my beautiful feet in just one switch! Why use Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi? Read more below :)

Any kind of footwear, you'll have beautiful feet in one switch!

     Because I have beautiful feet in no time, I can wear any kind of foot wear from day to night. I attend more than one event in a day and there are events that require dress code. There are events where it's okay to wear casual outfit: jeans+ shirt+ sneakers will do. Then another event requires cocktail dress. So I need to switch from casual wear to a more formal ensemble. The outfit? Sexy dress + wedge/heels or killer stilettos. I need not to worry about these transformations because with weekly use of Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi, I can bare my footsies anytime, anywhere!

The Origins of Chocolates

     Hi dearies! Are you a chocolate lover? Do you like milk, white, or dark choc? I presume you already know Villa del Conte Chocolates. If not, here's a brief introduction and history on chocolates and Villa del Conte.

     Chocolates are truly a delightful indulgence enjoyed by many around the world. Everyone has their favorite chocolate confection, but many do not know the history of this luscious, sweet temptation.

    This well-loved treat actually dates back three or even four millennia ago in a Pre-Columbian Mexico setting. And according to Pace University, it all started with a fermented drink by the Mayans and Aztecs called Xocoatl from the beans of the cocoa tree.

     The Aztecs found it to be an invigorating drink and aphrodisiac. Some even believed that every cacao bean comes with mystical and spiritual qualities, and these qualities made the drink reserved for rulers, warriors and nobles. 

     In the 1500s, the chocolate’s symbolism of wealth and power continued in Europe, when the Spanish conquistadors returned home with cacao instead of gold and silver. Soon it became a royal favorite in Europe and was still served as a beverage, only combined with sugar to counter its bitterness. 

     Three centuries after, the first chocolate mold was introduced in England, but did not instantly become popular because of its bitter taste. It wasn’t until a renowned Swiss chocolatier named Daniel Peter, experimented with various flavors and ingredients was the strong taste of cacao balanced. After several tries, a chocolate with a rich texture and sweet taste was finally achieved by combining cacao with one of their most abundant products at that time—milk. 

     This marked the creation of chocolates as we know today. Its popularity has spurred a rising number of chocolate artisans from various parts of the world to incorporate their own traditions and secret recipes in creating their signature takes on chocolates. 

     One chocolatier from a small, idyllic town nestled in the heart of Padova, Italy called Villa del Conte stood out because of his exceptional recipe—Nazzareno Cattapan. Eventually, his exceptional recipe was bestowed to following generations, and preserving this legacy today is the third-generation chocolate connoisseur, Enrico Nazzareno. Using only handpicked cacao beans, shaped by a unique process, one can easily notice and taste the masterpiece of authentic Italian tradition.

The Origins of Chocolates

     From Italy, these artisanal chocolates reached the beautiful archipelago of the Philippines; and today, you can blissfully indulge in their luscious creations, including Praline Balls, Praline Sticks, Ovicinis, Domes, Truffles, and Neapolitans. 

Visit Villa Del Conte stores at Shangri-La Plaza Mall, SM Megamall, Greenbelt 5, Alabang Town Center, Robinsons Magnolia, or Resorts World Manila. For bulk orders of Villa del Conte chocolates, please contact 893-2575 or 621-6101.
